Cluster size determines internal structure of transcription factories in human cells
Massimiliano Semeraro, Giuseppe Negro, Giada Forte +4
Transcription is a fundamental cellular process, and the first step of gene expression. In human cells, it depends on the binding to chromatin of various proteins, including RNA po…

Work fluctuations for a confined Brownian particle: the role of initial conditions
Giovanni Battista Carollo, Massimiliano Semeraro, Giuseppe Gonnella +1
We study the large fluctuations of the work injected by the random force into a Brownian particle under the action of a confining harmonic potential. In particular, we compute anal…

Entropy production of active Brownian particles going from liquid to hexatic and solid phases
Massimiliano Semeraro, Giuseppe Negro, Antonio Suma +2
Due to its inherent intertwinement with irreversibility, entropy production is a prime observable to monitor in systems of active particles. In this numerical study, entropy produc…
